Commentary:
  • Batman: The Killing Joke has been popular for a while, but interest in the upcoming animated film has driven it to the top of the chart for now a second week in a row.
  • Just a week away from Captain America: Civil War hitting theaters, and Civil War fever has hit the Amazon chart, fueled by a sale on the Kindle editions of the comic and its various tie-ins.
  • Most recently featured on Slate, Maximilian Uriarte's Iraq War memoir The White Donkey: Terminal Lance has been getting good reviews in the mainstream and non-comics press. It's in the top five this week and the Kindle edition debuts on the chart as well.
